A World Uprooted: Responding to Migrants, Refugees and Displaced People

16th Annual National GatheringApril 20-23, 2018
Washington, D.C.

Ecumenical Advocacy Days 2018 will focus on the uprootedness of our world. We will analyze current policy and envision ways to more fully and justly respond to the global and local needs of displaced communities. Through prayer, worship, advocacy training, and networking, we will seek policy changes that advance hope and overcome the devastating impacts of conflict, climate change and corruption on God’s people.

Pre-Gathering Theology Event
For participants arriving early, there will be an opportunity to attend a special pre-gathering event. Sponsored by the National Council of the Churches of Christ and entitled,"Our Call to Speak Up for Displaced People," the event on Friday afternoon, April 20 will include theologians presenting on this year's #EAD2018 theme.
